Previously in the Phoenix legacy the kids grew up and went to college, to my experimentally designed dorm. Veronica and Ellen generally whored around.
Clearly, Ellen has some problems.
SEXY problems! o.O
This may or may not have anything to do with this.
Ellen: "Hee-ey there good-lookin'! There's always room for another one on the Ellen Express! Chugga chugga choo choo!"
Dormie: "I... I have never been this turned on in my entire life! Take me! Take me noooow!"
Ellen: "Ahh. Another satisfied customer! :D"
Ellen looks... less enthused? I guess a girl in the Secret Society does not match up with the Contessa and her centuries of practice making out.
Ellen: "I've got a love hangover and I don't need no cure!"
Everyone: "Wooo~ drugs!"
Cheerleader: "Goooo Mr. Awesome! Finally getting some! Gooo--OMG, what's wrong with her face!? D8"
NOTHING A LITTLE BLEACH MAKE-OVER CAN'T FIX!
Elijah: "My dearest Marie, look at this make-up table that just conveniently appeared out of nowhere... Why don't you give it a go? All the cool kids are doing it!"
I knew there was someone pretty hiding behing the general failure that is Maxis! :D
To the loud cheers from the adoring masses, Elijah is the last of the Phoenixes to find the photo-booth love.
Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
and they're always glad you came.
You wanna be where you can see,
our troubles are all the same
You wanna be where everybody knows
Your name.
Charm, he has it.
As a proof of his awesome he then proceeds to fall in love and ask her to marry him. Not entirely sure in what order these things happened, but all is well.
Way to ruin the moment, bitch! >:(
To fill the void he quickly makes a new photo-booth "friend". Cafeteria lady approves.
Since everybody wants to be Elijah, Veronica takes Ash to their favourite place and pops the question.
That was officially the first and the last command I ever gave them. The rest of their relationship has all been ACR.
Elijah: "Dearly beloved. We have gathered here today to celebrate the fact that I am the most awesome person in the entire world. Thank you, thank you. When I first arrived at this campus, four years ago, I thought this day would never come. But here I am, graduated with honors and with a loving fiancée who I, come to think of it, haven't seen since our first and only date which she left in a hurry. But enough about her, this day is about me and my awesome. Let's celebrate! :D"
Well, uh. Thanks for stopping by, Michelle.
Yes, he was performing stand up comedy the entire party. Nobody cared, sadly.
Elijah: "I'm still awesome!"
Ellen: "Well, bitch, you're forgetting one thing..."
Yes, you see things correctly: Double heirs! Ellen and Elijah are here to populate the house with 6 grandkids for Roger's LTW.
Elijah wastes no time naturally. This is about five minutes after he moved back into the house.
I decided to throw them a beautiful balcony wedding.
The only person to give a damn was Griff, the butler.
Notice how his hair suddenly afro-sploded in formal wear. The whole bald spot business is apparently just an act.
Griff is also the only person who cares about Roger's birthday.
Griff: "Your tastefully incorrectly binned hair has nothing on my afro, sir."
Roger: "That will be all, Griff."
Griff: "Very well, sir."
Roger: "Come join me in the hot tub for some celebration, kids!"
Ellen: "No thanks, I'm heading downtown! You've got grandpa to keep you company."
She was actually heading Downtown to find someone new, but Contessa Annie decided to grace us with her presence, so I decided it was ~fate.
Oi, take a picture! It will last longer.
Townie: "Oh, I aldready did. Believe me."
Ellen: "So, this guy is creeping me out. Marry me?"
Contessa Annie: "Yes, yes, yes! I love you! :3"
Ellen: "Oof. You're kind of... heavy, dear."
Ellen: "He's still here, is he?"
Contessa Annie: "Yes, he is. Want me to kill him?"
Ellen: "Please."
I will spare you the death and carnage and take you back to this display of awkward hot-tubbing.
Hugin: "So, as I was saying..."
Elijah: "Daaaaddddd, grammmmpaaaa! Get the hell out of here!"
Roger: "What? Can't a man enjoy a nice litte soak in the company of his best friend?"
Hugin: "Indeed."
Hugin: "What you say, I'd give him an A."
Hugin: "It's better than most movies I've seen recently!"
Roger: "Oh, absolutely."
Marie: "You guys are sick, twisted, horrible people."
Hugin: "Why, thank you dear."
Ellen and Contessa Annie have a vampire-friendly wedding in the middle of the night, and would you look at that - guests appeared!
Elijah: "What if they're more awesome than me? *worry, worry*
Contessa Annie gets a make-over! I was thinking of something modern, but I opted for a slightly more classic look in the end.
NOOOOO!!! What the hell? It was almost midnight, and far too late for Grim to pay us a visit! Why does the game not notify people that their beloved sims are about to pass on to the otherworld before it is already over? Fuck you, Maxis.
Sniff. ;_;
Even Michelle is heartbroken. The atrociously evil witch-vampire is crying like a baby!
To make her feel better I decided to cure Contessa Annie from her vampirism.
There can only be one vampire in the house, and that is Michelle!
Besides, I have trouble enough keeping her out of the sun, I did not want to bother with two of them!
Of course, this is one of those things you are not supposed to do, because it might bork the game. Eh. Oops.
Marie: "Look, mailbox! I am also carrying something that costs a lot of money inside me now!"
Apparently, the ex-Contessa Annie hates poor Griff, for some reason.
Maybe because he is not doing his job.
Griff: "Ah, my dear Contessa. You are my only friend."
Ex-Contessa Annie: "Oh, I know. *plus*"
Ah, so this is when I finally downloaded the hack for wearing anything as maternitywear! It only took me eight generations, but I did it, damnit! :D Elijah is very proud of me.
Charlotte: "Sooo, dear. Have I told you that I really love grandchildren...?"
Said and done! I think we all recognize a pop-face when we see one now, yes?
For some reason this made me remember that Charlotte stole a bunch of stuff from the Secret Society and had it sitting in her inventory. Meet Mr. Cowplant. It may or may not have an importance in the future. Given the nature of the cowplant I suspect the former.
Ex-Contessa Annie: "See! Two pregnant ladies in the house, and we can totally fend for ourselves!"
Marie: "Totally."
Shall I tell them they are eating day-old rotten food? No?
She keeps getting pregnanter...
...and is absolutely adorable when she wobbles around trying to be all intimidating and stuff! :D
Since all the cool kids are doing it, I will end with a baby cliffhanger!
